|---|---|---|---|---|

Moderate tempo with Smart Axion leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. WONDER VISIBLE (5) is a distance specialist who finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 52 lengths when 16th over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt five weeks ago. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. LOPPIS (4) did a great job to score by half a length over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot repeat the dose. SMART AXION (7) produced a good run two starts back to finish third but failed to live up to market expectations last time when out of the placings at this track over the same trip after he was in contention on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. CERULEAN ROCKET (10) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out.
